TRONXY PETG Filament 1.75mm,Metal-Magenta-Gold 3D Printer Filament Accuracy +/- 0.05mm, 1KG Spool (2.2 LBS) for 3D Printers

Well, i was looking for a fluorescent orange filament and found this, when it came it wasn’t solid color, it is translucent fluorescent orange hahahahaa which makes it look dope! I was planning to build an AM8 printer, i don’t have an enclosure for ABS, and PLA was out of the map cause of the temperatures, so i got this PETG, printed some big pieces first and wow!! It prints beautifully! Diameter is really consistent, no tangles in the spool or anything, and for adhesion.... well i have a PEI sheet, lets say that with PETG you need to level a little bit higher than you normally do, cause PETG sticks even to mud hahahaha, but it Reeaaalllyyy sticks to PEI, so, no adhesion problems, nor warping issues, as this prints as easy as PLA, just higher temp in the nozzle, all in all, i totally recommend it, i actually ordered one more roll, it’s like 21 dlls, and i always said i was never going to pay more than 18 for a roll ahhahaa, but i gladly did with this second roll i ordered. Pros: Sticks to practically anything, with hot bed, you can use glass or kapton tape, with no hot bed, you can use painters tape. Prints awesome if your printer is dialed in. Really well spooled, not a single tangle in the whole roll. Diameter consitency. CONS: It sticks too well!! Hahahaha i almost rip my PEI sheet trying to take one print off, but it was my fault for not leveling a little higher. No more than i can think of.

I usually don't print in this color, but I thought I would give it a try. I also usually print with PLA, though I have printed PETG in the past. Overall, the filament printed very well. I had consistent extrusion with every print I have done so far. I haven't had any problem with filament jams or inconsistencies. I measured multiple points along the filament to check for inconsistencies and found none. This filament also came dry and vacuum sealed. PETG can have a tenancy to absorb water from the air. I'd recommend storing this filament someplace where it won't gather moisture. I have mine in a dry box. When PETG gets wet it will string while printing. This roll of orange PETG filament came in a vacuum sealed bag. It was also dry when I received it. I did not have to dry this filament in the oven like I have other brands of PETG. I tested this filament with a couple flexi models to see if I got any consistent stringing. I printed the flexi cat with my normal settings and it turned out flawless. I then printed the Vase, which also came out flawless. I printed the flexi raptor after that, but I turned the speed up quite a bit to see if I could get the filament to string or print poorly especially with the smaller links on the tail. On the flexi raptor I did have some stringing (especially in the eye) but none in between each of the individual links of the model. In summary, this filament I can definitely recommend. It has a bright vibrant color with consistent extrusion and comes dry in a vacuum sealed bag. I'm planning to save some of this filament for later in the year for a couple Halloween prints as this color gives me some serious Halloween vibes. If you're looking for an Orange PETG you can't go wrong here!!

Giving this 3 stars because it printed great when new out of the package. It’s not as deep and glossy as the picture shows but that could be settings that need to be dialed in. Main reason I’m knocking off 2 stars is that the filament became brittle and unusable after I ran it through a cycle in my SpacePi x4 dryer. Granted I had let it sit out in 65% humidity, but I also dried it for 8 hours. It broke on the roll and in the tubes then jammed my K2 Plus over and over before I just threw 1/2 the roll away. Switched to other brands and the jamming stopped. If you decide to go with this filament be careful not to let it absorb moisture. Seems like the drying process ruins it.

UPDATE: After multiple attempts in 2 different printers, changing setting via suggestions online, and baking the filament to make sure no moisture was in the filament, it still printed terrible. I threw it in the trash. Do not buy. This PETG was difficult to get dialed in. A lot of stringing right away. My regular settings for PETG would not work. Took many tries to get the prints to look decent. Retraction was difficult to figure out. Was able to get some good quality prints towards the end. Color is cool and different. If you know how to print with PETG, get the filament. If you've never printed PETG, this is not a place to start.

First let me say this was my first attempt at PETG so some of the issues I had I am sure were mostly my lack of experience. With that said, I like the color of this filament. I did download a sample S3D profile for PETG and used it. It was ok but I needed to slow the print down to get it past the 1st couple of layers. I had a tough time getting the first layer to adhere to the bed (75 degrees). Once I put a Raft down, which did adhere, the print would continue on. I did get some stringing and some areas in the fill that seemed to not adhere to the layer below in areas. I have to do some more testing but I think I may try some more PETG from Tronxy. I had a few questions for them and they responded quickly with good information. All in all and good PETG product and a good starting point for my learning.

maybe i got a slightly bad batch, or it has water in it but it doesnt print super well. at multiple temps with and without fan it doesnt come out very strong. Made sure it wast my machine over or under extruding, just not that impressed but it was cheap.

It worked very well in the picture the puppy was the first print, not very stable prints excepting at lower speeds 30-55mms. Faster then 55 and I get over extrusion, blobs and additional pickup on the print head leading to burnt poly dropping into the Print. Prints have Been Fine-Perfect at 45mms good looking material with a Gold shine to it.

Tronxy製のPETGフィラメントです。 色はメタルライトグレーを選択しました。ガンメタリック的な光沢のあるカッコ良い色です。 テストプリントで船を印刷しました。 PETとPETG。名前は似ていますが、PETと違ってこちらは糸引きが全く無く、印刷しやすかったです。 積層痕はビシッと揃っていて、反りも少なく美しい出来栄え。 とても良いフィラメントだと思います。 今回初めてPETGフィラメントを使用しました。 PETGはABSの強靭さとPLAのプリントしやすさを併せ持つようなフィラメントと言われていますが、確かにその通りの印象を受けました。 [印刷環境] 3Dプリンター：Creality Ender3 S1 ノズル温度 ：235℃ ベッド温度 ：65℃ その他の設定 ：デフォルトのまま [外箱記載] ノズル温度 ：220-250℃ ベッド温度 ：記載無し

Tronxy PETG Metal Purple. Never heard of them before but liked the color. Used about 1/3 of it so far and it seems to go on well. Not the best adhesion to the bed and is a bit brittle but with a brim it seems to do well and has a smooth finish. It is stringy though but I don't have a dryer. I would buy again if it went on sale. 24 CAD is a bit expensive.

Good Stuff. I found it a little stringy but I think it was more the way the parts printed than the material

I really wanted to like this filament, but the quality just isn’t consistent. The diameter varies enough to cause under‑extrusion and visible defects in prints, even after adjusting settings. Surface finish is also uneven, and the spool I received had several loose windings that led to tangles during printing.
